Earlier
this month, Bruce E. Ivins, a skilled microbiologist who assisted the
FBI in their investigation of the 2001 anthrax mail attacks, supposedly
killed himself. Seems to be the thing for microbiologists over the past
ten years. Allegedly the Federal Department of InJustice was ready to
file criminal charges against Ivins for the attacks. Those clever crime
busters at the FBI originally tapped another government scientist, Steven
J. Hatfill, as the chief suspect. They hounded and harassed this man
for years and finally, when they could no longer hide their complete
ineptness, they settled with Dr. Hatfill to the tune of $5.82 MILLION
dollars.

There
was never any evidence that Dr. Hatfill possessed any anthrax, but that
didn't stop the men and women of the "Fidelity, Bravery and Integrity"
bureau from pursing and ruining the wrong man's life. Because there's
no money in the treasury, that $5.82 MILLION dollar settlement had to
be borrowed from the "FED" with the interest heaped upon the
backs of we the people. No doubt those responsible for that monumental
screw up in the FBI will be promoted, not fired. This time around, how
convenient that just as the G-men were about to get their new man, he
ups and kills himself. Dead men tell no tales nor do they sue for damages
like Dr. Hatfill, costing the taxpayers millions of dollars for another
sloppy investigation by the FBI.

Ivins,
age 62, worked for the past 18 years at the government's "elite"
biodefense research labs at Ft. Detrick, Md. He worked on anthrax vaccines
to save lives. According to all reports, Ivins, was "A well-respected
and award-winning scientist; Ivins co-wrote a slew of anthrax studies,
including a recent work on the treatment for inhalation anthrax published
in the July 7 issue of the Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy journal."
His colleagues have come forward and said it simply could not have been
him for many reasons. Doesn't sound like a loon as depicted by therapist/social
worker, Jean Duley.

One
would think that scientists at all levels working at these highly sensitive
facilities would be, well, in control of their faculties. However, there
appears to have been a problem with Dr. Ivins, according
to Ms. Duley: "Yet, Ivins had attempted to poison people as
far back as 2000 and his therapist said she was "scared to death"
of him, according to court testimony that emerged Saturday. Social worker
Jean Duley testified at a court hearing in Frederick, Md., on July 24
in a successful bid for a protective order from Ivins that he "actually
attempted to murder several other people."

It's
unclear exactly the date when Ivins began seeing this "social worker."
Ms. Duley states Ivins had attempted to poison people as far back as
2000. Huh? Why didn't she immediately report knowledge of a crime? If
she knew all this about Ivins, why didn't she alert authorities? Surely
this woman knew Ivins worked in a highly sensitive and dangerous environment
and would recognize a ticking time bomb....or would Jean Duley? In his
August 4, 2008, column 'Additional
key facts re: the anthrax investigation,' Glen Greenwald writes:

"(2)
So much of the public reporting about Ivins has been devoted to depicting
him as a highly unstable psychotic who had been issuing extremely violent
threats and who had a violent past. But that depiction has been based
almost exclusively on the uncorroborated claims of Jean Carol Duley,
a social worker (not a psychiatrist or psychologist) who, as recently
as last year, was apparently still in college at Hood College in Frederick,
Maryland. Duley's scrawled
handwritten complaint against Ivins, seeking a Protective Order,
has served as the basis for much of the reporting regarding Ivins' mental
state, yet it is hardly the model of a competent or authoritative professional.
Quite the opposite.

"Duley
herself has a history that, at the very least, raises questions about
her credibility. She has a rather lengthy involvement with the courts
in Frederick, including two very recent convictions for driving under
the influence -- one from 2007 and one from 2006 -- as well as a complaint
filed against her for battery by her ex-husband. Here is Duley's record
from the Maryland Judicial data base: (see
link to view)

"Just
three months ago, Duley pled guilty and was sentenced to probation (with
a suspended fine of $500), as a result of having been stopped in December,
while driving at 1:35 a.m., and charged with driving under the influence:
(see
link to view)."

This
is the caliber of professionals the FBI uses to provide mental health
assistance to individuals like Ivins who work in sensitive, dangerous,
high-pressure environments? The bureau of Fidelity, Integrity and Bravery
could do better with a Girl Friday agency.

While
I find counterfeit U.S. Senator Charles Grassley to be nothing more
than a business as usual bureaurat for many valid reasons, he has done
the right thing here. On, August 7, 2008, he sent a very
detailed letter full of questions to two corrupt high ranking public
officials: The Dishonorable Attorney General, Michael B. Mukasey and
the Dishonorable Robert S. Mueller, Director, Federal Bureau of Investigation;
I would put Mueller in the criminal activities category. I would expect
the same response forth coming to Grassley as most members of Congress
get from those two: stonewalling and obfuscation.

The
question is who benefits from Dr. Ivins death assuming this man was
hounded to commit suicide? I would like readers to go back to a series
I wrote back on January 16, 2006: ENRON - The
Smokin' Cannon of 9/11? The same source of mine in California sent
me mail following, Ivins, alleged suicide that raised another question:

"I
postulated that the real culprit of the 9/11 and Anthrax attacks - who
engineered it all - was Thomas E. (Enron) White, the former co-Chair
of 'Enron, who subsequently became Army Secretary. His dominate motive,
was cover his, and others, ass and assets. Was there a massive cover
up? White, who was co-Chair, again, of Enron, was never indicated. Recently,
we are led to believe that Bruce Ivins was behind the Anthrax attacks,
who worked out of the ARMY's Fort Detrick biological center. I wondered
if there besides that was any direct connection between Dr. Ivins and
Tom White."

Indeed,
it appears the two met: On March 14, 2003, at a Pentagon ceremony, Ivins
and two of his colleagues received the 'Decoration of Exceptional Civilian
Service,' which is the highest honor awarded to non military employees
of DOD (Department of Defense). As Secretary of the Army at that time,
Thomas E. White bestowed this honor to Dr. Ivins. Less than a month
later, Donald Rumsfeld fired White.

Is
all this just a bunch of malarkey? Thomas E. White and Dick Cheney have
a history, see my column here: 9-11/ The New
White-Washing & Buckets of Money.
Thomas E. White left Enron after 11 years, holding MEGA MILLIONS in
stock and stock options. This is May 2001. He leaves this lucrative
job to become Secretary of the Army making a couple hundred thousand
a year. A very interesting fact is that when White moved over to DOD,
his official bio was massaged; see
here. The ENRON meltdown is now percolating and ready to blow; time
line here. The anthrax attacks commence September 19, 2001, when
the first letter is sent to American Media in Florida. White dumps his
stock for $12 million bux while ENRON employees lose everything including
all their retirement. "The Architect," Karl Rove, sells his
ENRON stock in June 2001, estimated value between $100,000 - $250,000.

"My
veteran ABLE DANGER colleagues and I share the common fear that the
seeds of the next 9-11 attack have already been sewn – and that
much of the critical data that was harvested for the ABLE DANGER project,
that could be used again now in the search for sleeper cells and others
that matched the “Atta” profile is now gone – destroyed
at the direction of DoD officials in the 2000 time frame. You have heard
from Eric Kleinsmith of his work on ABLE DANGER, and his receiving direction
to “destroy the data and background documents or go to jail”
– which he did. However, it must be noted that despite citing
AR 380-10 as the “authority” for this action, the DoD lawyer
is wrong and, worse, deceptive. There are two exceptions that allow
the retention of U.S. person information – both of those were
met by then MAJ Kleinsmith – yet lawyers directed that he destroy
the data anyway."

In
this entire sickening saga, White is the "universal epicenter and
common denominator" as Cheney is to the attacks of 9/11. All of
this reads like a Tom Clancy novel, but much we can prove as facts.
The masterminding of the anthrax attacks is speculation. The truth is
being undermined by the FBI. However, if it walks like a duck and quacks
like a duck, guess what you have?

Who
benefits from Ivins suicide and case closed? Very powerful people
who need the problem to go away. This investigation was dragging
along for years and after the Hatfill disaster, "new evidence"
was cooked up in the lab to direct the G-men to Ivins. This is the same
FBI whose laboratory in Washington, DC, royally screwed up the OKC bombing
evidence in that cover up. According to the OIG (Office of Inspector
General) report, the FBI lab boys have no idea if ANFO was used as "weapons
of mass destruction in the Murrah bombing." Here is just a tiny
sample of "evidence" used to send someone to death row; see
my full column here.

I
know there are some good people who work for the FBI. They must be so
ashamed to see what has gone on since Ruby Ridge, WACO, OKC, TWA Flight
800, AA Flight 587, 9/11 and this latest farce, solving the anthrax
attacks. How can you people continue working for such a corrupt agency?
How can you people look in the mirror every morning knowing the American
people have been lied to over and over and over? Ah, paychecks. But,
will they make up for what's in your heart and conscience?

Thomas
E. White has been protected by powerful people like Dick Cheney. The
only way we will ever find out the truth is real investigations into
the events of September 11, 2001, and the anthrax attacks. That will
not happen until decent, courageous individuals are elected to Congress
who care about the truth instead of the next election. This means open
investigations using civilians who have uncovered the discrepancies;
testimony from people like Steven Jones and so many others. It can't
be an investigation by the Department of Justice because as my friend
in California says, "Why would you investigate anyone with a tank
sitting on your own lawn?"

One
thing "elected" public servants need to remember: No one is
safe and any of them or their families could have been in the wrong
place at the wrong time on 9/11, same as the anthrax victims. The victims
of September 11, 2001 and the anthrax attacks cry out for justice. Remember
that when you vote in November.
